Academic Burnout and Its Relationship with Self-‎regulation and Emotional Regulation among ‎Hashemite University Students

الملخص

The current study aimed to identify the level of academic burnout, self-regulation and emotional regulation, as well as to indentify whether there are statistically significant differences in the level of academic burnout, self-regulation and emotional regulation due to gender, academic specialization and academic level variables. It also aimed to investigate the relationship between academic burnout, self-regulation and emotional regulation. To achieve the aims of the study, the academic burnout scale, self-regulation scale and emotional regulation scale were used. The study sample consisted of (735) students at the Hashemite University chosen by the convenience method. The results of the study showed that the level of academic burnout was low and showed no statistically significant differences in the level of academic burnout due to gender. However, there were statistically significant differences in the level of academic burnout due to academic specialization, with the academic burnout level of scientific colleges students being lower than that of humanities colleges students. Statistically significant differences were also found in the level of academic burnout due to academic level, with the level in first-year students being lower than the level in second -and fourth- year students. The results also showed that the levels of self-regulation and emotional regulation were moderate. There were no statistically significant differences in the level of self-regulation due to gender, academic specialization or academic level, although there were statistically significant differences in the level of emotional regulation due to gender, in favour of female students; statistically significant differences were also found in the level of emotional regulation due to academic level, in favour of first -and fourth- year students. Finally, the results showed a negative correlation and astatistically significant relationship between academic burnout, self-regulation and emotional regulation
